To a certain extent, Linux does follow the bazaar path. But by that I mean you see it in the distributions. People could decide on the correct way to implement things, so we started to get the RPM distribution, no RMP distribution. Soon we have more forking with different distributions that may use RPMs, but are different in their own ways. But, they keep a standard between them, in prder to keep this web.
Therefore, while perhaps the kernel dev. is not managed as a bazaar, it is quite clear that if we stand back, and we call all distributions forks in the road of Linux, though it may be bizarre, we most certainly have one big bazaar! (sorry about that one)
Professor quote of the day:
"When I first introduced this, everyone thought I was crazy. The TAs were scared, other professors wouldn't talk to me, but the students said, 'this is too easy, give us more!'."
